Nice to see Morocco added as a scheduled service.
As BrumX said,hopefully more to come soon.
North Africa seems to be making a comeback after a few years of uncertainty.Morocco has always been popular,so let’s hope these services are successful.

I wonder if tourism to Morocco will be taking a nose dive after the two Scandinavian girls were beheaded in the Atlas mountains last year.

Is it bookable from MAN & LGW from the 25th October ?

MAN to Agadir isn't bookable beyond October so not too concerned about that.....yet.
The early loads that I saw were beyond abysmal, I'm surprised that some of the flights actually operated. I've not seen any numbers for a while but hopefully things picked up over Christmas.

Certainly one to keep an eye on. You have to wonder that ‘IF’ the MAN and LGW loads weren’t that brilliant why did they think opening a third U.K. destination was a good idea?

I've just done a test booking for out to Agadir tomorrow and back to Birmingham on Friday. The seat maps show 5 seats reserved outbound and four reserved inbound, the price was £115.
Obviously it isn't a totally accurate reflection as not every passenger will book seats in advance and there may be others booked through third party agents. It's still pretty poor though.

Could never understand why this route was launched in the winter months, why didnt the airline wait until summer, surely more demand in the hotter months?
When any new airline starts at Birmingham, I always thingk the key is plenty of marketing and advertising in the Midlands, have Air Arabia Maroc done any? Look at what Jet2 did to launch their services?
I guess that 99.9% of the Midlands population have no idea about this airline and route from Birmingham, and that is where the problems start, such a random route with an unknown airline, who would even search for it? I just can't see it lasting much longer.

RYR and EZY will always fill but Air Arabia are struggling at BHX with no load higher than 50 !
MAN is probably similar but the figures mask this.
Can see BGX
